- Clan Mackay is an ancient and once powerful Scottish clan from the far north of the Scottish Highlands, but with roots in the old province of Moray. They were a powerful force in politics beginning in the 14th century, supporting Robert the Bruce. Mackays became famous for strength, courage and skill in soldiering and were involved in endless clan battles against Keiths, Rosses, Gunns, Sinclairs, Sutherlands and others, and in wars abroad. In the centuries that followed they were anti-Jacobite. They played an important military role in both Scotland and Europe. The Highland Clearances had dire consequences for the clan, but since then they have spread through many parts of the world and have provided it many famous and influential people.
- MacKay ("Sohn des Kay"), auch bekannt als Clan Morgan, ist der Name eines schottischen Clans, der aus der nordschottischen Region Strathnaver, Sutherland stammt. Der Clan hatte ständig mit mächtigen Nachbarn zu kämpfen, darunter die MacDonalds und die Herzöge von Sutherland, und musste Strathnaver 1642 wegen des anhaltenden Druckes verkaufen. 1829 übernahm die Sutherland-Familie die verbleibenden Ländereien der MacKays. Das Motto des Clans lautet Mau forti ("Mit starker Hand").
- Mackay is de naam van een adellijke familie. De familie Mackay komt oorspronkelijk uit Schotland waar hun wortels liggen in een gelijknamige clan. De Schotse brigadier-generaal Aeneas Mackay (1666-1697) huwde 1692 te Tiel een Nederlandse vrouw, Margaretha Puchler (1671-1761), dochter van de garnizoenscommandant van Tiel. Aenaes Mackay was een zoon van de Schote edelman John Mackay, tweede Lord Reay of Reay. Zijn zoon Daniël werd evenals zijn vader commandant van de Schotse brigade in de Nederlanden. Hij sneuvelde in 1745 tijdens de Oostenrijkse Successieoorlog. Zijn nazaten bleven gedeeltelijk in Nederland wonen. Ook diverse nakomelingen kozen voor een militaire loopbaan.
